Stags Head Hose
Here is a reproduced pair of hose I made in 1996. Seen worn in green and orange in the famous MacLeay portraits from the 1840s of Balmoral estate workers and titled gentlemen, replicated here in bottle green and red. The paintings in the collection are a fantastic source of ideas and inspiration: £240

Dancers Hose
Dancer hose made in dress tartans. The split diamond design is also catered for.
£200 for the turned-over hose.
Children's hose catered for as well.
Children's
Children's hose are usually 2 diamond wide due to wee calf widths. The price will be dictated to buy the dimensions supplied. So tiny wee socks up to young teens will be between £75 to £129. However if younger people's dimensions fall into adult proportions for example 14" or above calf width, leg length 14" foot 10" or longer then adult prices will apply due to work involved.
